The Atlantic 10 is one of just two conferences with four teams that have reached 19 or more wins. The ACC also has four 19-win teams.

Saint Louis, which has won a record 16 straight, moved up to 12 in both polls this week. George Washington continues to receive votes in both polls, while UMass and VCU are earning votes in the Coaches’ Poll. Dayton was ranked earlier this season and La Salle and Saint Joseph’s received votes, meaning seven A-10 teams have been ranked or received votes this season.

In the latest Bracketologies, Jerry Palm of CBSSports.com have five A-10 teams in his bracket (UMass, Richmond Saint Louis, VCU, George Washington) and her lists Dayton among his first four out. ESPN’s Joe Lunardi has four A-10 teams in the Big Dance (UMass, Saint Louis, VCU, George Washington) with Saint Joseph’s on the bubble.
